@yarzu25 If your indicator requires more historic data you may download from mq5 (not recommanded) or open the desired timeframe and instrument and use page down or up ( can't remember at the moment) to scroll back in past. Disable auto shift of chart before.
As an alternative there are scripts available to load historic data. just google for it.
Last but not least there are comercial products fot mt4 available that allow for using tickdata from some available and providing brokers.

@errinjm Well, without knowing the indicator it's a bit hard to tell. Explore the buffers if available and choose the right one. You ma use the data window to explore the buffers.
Then use a condition block.

@paragorundu Each trade you take increases your risk! So better know and accept your initial risk and if the trade doesn't work out the way you wish end it. That saves your account best!

@l-andorrà The indicator from that post doesn't load anymore. I think there is some update needed.

@rimbab45 There was a bench of cyrillic characters in the code that make fxdreema to fail importing the indicator. I deleted the licensing part of the indicator where most of the cyrillic letters occured and the other occurances (mostly comments) as well.

Check that version and reimport it. It should display lik that on import ...

0_1577707474201_irimbab_1_.mq4

@rimbab45 This can happen if it uses the same variables as fxdreema such as "Shift" for instance. Do you have the mq4 file? Ususally you just need to rename those variables.

@svenw8 You can keep it in the subfolder if you put that folder name in front of the indicator name while importing into fxdreema. So you would put foldername/indicator.mq4 rather than indicator.mq4 only.

Btw. Didi index is an interesting indicator. Just many people don't know how to use it the right way. Take a look here in order to get continuation trade signals on pullbaclks for instance!
Looks like you are on the No Nonsense Forex way, right?

@khalids222 Put a pass block in front anyways! It's the better approach.

@biztet You may achieve that with offline charts. But be aware that not indicators may work on them. A quick google search gave me this result:

@biztet Take profit is not the issue with that strategy. I let run it on a daily chart on GU for 2019.

It's like how many people fail with their heding strategy with a number of open trades on the edges of the trading range. Furthermore if trades are open for a longer time, swap will be probably against you either,

@alphaomega If a block is in state off, it will not be executed - this also applies to the blocks linked behind it (unless there is a connection from another block as well that is not switched off).

@biztet So you mean like that?

Looks a bit dangerous!

@biztet But that is differnent to the project description in the mq4 file in first post, right?

@biztet ATR SL is one of the topics that are asked maybe 1-2 times at least per week. You might use the search function or maybe have a look here.
If you use the Fractals on Chart indicator, you may not need it as the indicator sets it's stop level at the last fractal. You may add a pip for spread and commision if applicable.

@l-andorrà Yepp, why not? You may set a pass block in front of it.

@alphaomega Well, first of all check blocks 23 and 24. Bulls and bears period should be an integer number I'd guess such as 13 instead of 0.13
However, fixing that would still question how the MA condition could work. MA value is a price level and the bull/bears indicator value is a price fraction. It's a bit like comparing 2 totally different things.
As I don't have that keltner indicator, I get a lot of errors in the log and EA cannot be tested further. Maybe fix those issues first and than we take a look further on.

@alphaomega Should work by settings. may you share your project? I see some didabled block in the background of the screenshot. Maybe the blocks just don't get called.

@rusen No Metatrader allows for only 1 EA per chart.
Use terminal variables if you have 2 charts with 1 EA each to oass information from one EA to the other.

@biztet Here is a short explanation of the incators:

1. Wave structure on chart:
   

Parameters:
num -> timeframe where 0 is the current chart timeframe 1 is the next higher and so on.

Use it for determine your SL for instance.

2. Fractal Studies:
   

Parameters:
num -> same as above
MCIndicator: Defines indicator style.

I usually use the MC Market Structure chart type.
Green above 0 -> Uptrend
Red above 0 -> Downtrend

Green above 0 and crimson red below 0 -> Uptrend with pullback
Red above 0 and dark green below 0 -> Downtrend with pullback

The idea is that on higher TF you watch for trend. And on lower TF such as current you enter the trades.

If you like an oscilator view better, you might choose Market Structure Oscilator rather than the regular one.

The information it gives is the same. Just the red / crimson information is below 0 on the oscilator view.

The Wave Size chart you might use for instance to compare it with current ATR. Only take trades for instance if Wave size is bigger than ATR(14). Hence you might filter some low moves out. Here is a visual example where I manually put ATR(14) indicator on Wave Size chart.

@biztet Well, I prefer to use candle ID1, but you can use candle ID0 espcially for the candle open. However, your conditions don't make much sense as they are always true! Maybe you can formulate what you try to achieve and we might find a solution for it. At the moment you compare if the open price of candle ID0 is equal to the open price of candle ID0. This is always the case as well as the value of 1 equals 1.
